Mantra For Protection From Danger | Kalbhairav
by Mataji Shivā
Words: Om bam batukaya apaduddharanaya kuru kuru batukaya bam om namah shivaya. Maha Kalbhairav mantra: Maha means great and Kalbhairav is a tantric and hidden aspect of Shiva, extremely powerful. You can use it for protection on all levels, from dark forces and from any threat or danger. Also, when you feel spiritually weak. Kalbhairav is the protector of the Divine Mother, and especially of the yoginis. He has a very terrifying appearance, but his nature is sweet and soothing. The mantra does not have a literal meaning, as it is composed of several seed mantras (om, bam, kuru kuru) that don’t have a translation but hold great power. It should be recited on Sunday mornings, repeating it 3 times. If you are in a situation that requires protection, you can chant it another day of the week, completing a full round of the mala (108 repetitions). It should not be repeated more than this.
